Why we ship from China

Better for the planet, better for you

We know what you're thinking... ‘Wait, why China?’ Don't worry, grab a cup of tea (or wine, no judgement here), and let us explain. Spoiler alert: it's all about improving the planet and making sure you get the best period wear ever! And without those absurd price tags...

01

Sustainable from the Start

Do you love our period wear? (We know you do.) Well, the magic behind that soft, leak-proof fabric comes from eco-friendly materials like organic cotton, bamboo, and recycled nylon, all sourced directly from China.

Why China? Because they have a huge network of sustainable material suppliers there, and we're all about working smarter, not harder. By sourcing everything from one place, we avoid shipping materials around the world. (Hello, lower carbon emissions!) 🌎💚

02

Smarter Shipping for the Planet

Shipping from China may seem risky, but it's a smart choice for Mother Earth! By carefully selecting our manufacturers and shipping methods, we have discovered that total CO2 emissions are lower when we ship directly from China than when we ship locally.

Products shipped locally often make 5-7 stops before reaching you, which causes additional CO2 emissions.
By shipping directly, we limit the number of stops and the distance our products travel. This also means we can reduce the amount of protective packaging, as there is less chance of damage during transport.

03

No Sweatshops Here!

We take the manufacturing of our products very seriously, which is why all our factories in China are OEKO-TEX 100 and Global Recycle Standard (GRS) certified. This means that they have passed all tests for sustainability AND ethical labour practices.

What's more, we conduct regular audits to ensure that everyone is paid fairly, treated with respect and works in safe conditions. No shady practices here, just honest, hard-working people making your favourite period wear.

04

Affordable for everyone

Here's the tea: manufacturing our products in China helps us keep costs low without compromising on quality. Because who says you can't have it all? You get high-quality, leak-proof period wear at prices that won't break the bank.

And guess what? with our 1+1 free deal, you pay £15 per pair of knickers! More underwear, more cycles, more eco-friendly vibes. All thanks to our decision to manufacture where we can be both ethical and affordable. 🎉

05

Empowering Women.

Shipping from China allows us to get Maysa products into the hands (and on the hips) of women around the world. 🌍 We're here to make sustainable periods a thing worldwide, and that means reaching as many women as possible.

And because we care about all of you, we've made sure that the entire process from production to shipping is in line with our vision of sustainability, empowerment, and accessibility.

So every time you wear Maysa, you're making a powerful, positive choice for yourself AND the planet.
